2004 Systematic IEEE rounding method for high-speed floating-point multipliers
abstract
For performance reasons, many high-speed floating-point multipliers today precompute multiple significand values (SVs) in advance. The final normalization and rounding steps are then performed by selecting the appropriate SV. While having speed advantages, this integrated rounding method complicates the development of the rounding logic significantly, hence, requiring a systematic rounding method. The systematic rounding method, presented in this paper, has three steps: 1) constructing a rounding table; 2) developing a prediction scheme; and 3) performing rounding digits selection (RDS). The rounding table lists all possible SVs that need to be precomputed. Prediction reduces the number of these SVs for efficient hardware implementation while RDS reduces the complexity of the rounding logic. Both prediction and RDS depend on the specifics of the hardware implementation. Two hardware implementations are described. The first one is modeled after that reported by Santoro et al. and the second improved one supports all IEEE rounding modes. Besides allowing systematic hardware optimization, this rounding method has the added advantage that verification and generalization are straightforward.

1995 The SNAP Project: Towards Sub-Nanosecond Arithmetic
abstract
SNAP-the Stanford subnanosecond arithmetic processor-is an interdisciplinary effort to develop theory, tools, and technology for realizing an arithmetic processor with execution rates under 1 ns. Specific improvements in clocking methods, floating-point addition algorithms, floating-point multiplication algorithms, division and higher-level function algorithms, design tools, and packaging technology were studied. These improvements have been demonstrated in the implementation of several VLSI designs.>

1992 High-Speed Addition in CMOS
abstract
A fully static complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) implementation of a Ling-type 32-bit adder is described. The implementation saves up to one gate delay and always reduces the number of serial transistors in the worst-case critical path over the conventional carry look-ahead (CLA) approach with a negligible increaser in hardware.>
